From Slashdot by kdawson
Nonfinity writes "A public iris scanning device has been proposed in a patent application from Sarnoff Labs in New Jersey. The device is able to scan the iris of the eye without the knowledge or consent of the person being scanned. The device uses multiple cameras, captures multiple images, and then selects the best image to process."
Blogger's Note: I don't know about everyone else but it sure seems like a violation of a person's rights and personal space if these scans can occur without a person's knowledge or consent. what if they make a mistake? Are they going to go around and arrest people because they think they got a positive match on a bad guy from an eye scan that came from across the room?
